If you are interested in how it can help you, or how to get a site that allows you to update the content yourself, contact Skyler on our website team. He will help you out.

You can still be a target for identify thieves and hackers even if you have anti-virus, spyware protection and a firewall! Read on to find out how YOU are giving these folks access to your personal information…

“Bruce, we reboot the server each morning when we come in. This keeps it from crashing,” my new client told me as we discussed the action plan we put together to make their network stable and problem free. As I tried to figure out how to respond to this, he went on to ask me if rebooting his server would be covered under Fixed IT. The answer is YES, if you want your server rebooted every day, we will do it for you. However if you are rebooting your server every day or even once a week, there is something else going on! In this customer’s case their backups were not set up correctly by their last vendor (who never seemed to get around to calling my new customer back, good for us, bad for them). Each night this backup process would get locked up and cause the server to fail when the staff arrived and started to log in to the network. Moreover, they were not even getting a complete backup of the data on the server!
